Winter covers

Seasonal protection that keeps debris and sun out of the water so opening day is short instead of miserable.

A track system that closes over the water with a key turn. The best daily-use cover, and the most expensive.

What ruins a pool cover

Standing water and debris

Leaves and water left sitting stretch a cover and stain it. A pump and a leaf net add years to its life.

Bad anchors

Anchors set in failing concrete pull loose and tear the cover. We reset them into sound material during install.

Neglected mechanisms

Automatic covers need clean tracks and correct rope tension. Most motor failures start as a binding track.

Pool cover questions

Ask us a pool cover question

Mesh or solid safety cover?

Mesh drains and is lighter to handle but lets fine dirt through. Solid keeps water cleaner but needs a cover pump.

How long does a safety cover last?

Eight to twelve years with reasonable care. Anchors and straps usually need attention before the fabric does.

Are automatic covers worth it?

If you will actually use it daily, yes. Heat retention, cleanliness and safety all improve. They do require service.

Can a cover replace a fence?

No. Local code requires a barrier regardless. A safety cover is an additional layer, not a substitute.

Do you service covers you did not sell?

Yes. Repairs and anchor work on existing covers are a regular part of our service calendar.
